ShaggyRS6 Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 The beast is in for a service today, and against the norm I was given an S3 as a run a round for today. Other than being bright orange its a stunning car. Compared to the beast its a little under powered :wacko: but when i let myself forget what i normally drive i was having so much fun. Really nippy, you can through into corners, superb. Just been told the RS6 suspension is leaking on all four corners. So they are not putting in for an MOT as it will fail. Its still under warranty so that's ok, I may get to keep the Orange Nutter for a few more days :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 ouch I'd hate to get the bill if it wasn't under warranty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pin Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 :wacko: I buckled one of the RS6 alloys and was quoted £1094+vat by Audi Not cheap to fix, nice to drive though :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 If I was still interested in cars the S3 would be on my list of favourite sensible cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyb Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 I've been contemplating chopping the Type-R in for one... They do look a cracking package :wacko: Getting Audi discount helps too :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njc110381 Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 I like all of the Audi S/RS range, lovely cars! Not too boy racer looking, and very quick. I once did a job for a very rich chap who owned one (along with a Rolls, Aston Martin, Maserati and several other fast as **** cars). It was tuned up a bit, but he said the RS6 was the fastest car he had :wacko: I'd love one. If I had the money it would be a close call between an RS4 and a Merc E55 AMG.

ShaggyRS6 Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Just got back from the Garage. i had to take the S3 back cos it was being demo'd this weekend. Got a Deisel A6, Brand New, very nice inside, goes like a tortoise :wacko: Oh the bill. They had to get it cleared by Audi HQ as they are only allowed to do warranty jobs to 300 Pound. The DRC (Dynamic Ride Control) is costing £3000. My warranty runs out on Sunday. Thank You God!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSA Shaun Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 My sister had an S3 pretty much when they first came out, was a cracker. She binned it for an S4 and now drives a 330D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
